We really really need to stop emphasizing growth of individual instances.
It entirely defeats the point of federation.

Wait until it is twice as big. :)
That's interesting. I picked up memebership in both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world (same username) after trying Beehaw and finding that I was met with an endless circle of progress when submitting...
Is it stable?
You bet, it is online 99% of 50% of the time.
That's more than my body is online
99.53% stable to be exact!
Yeah but a lot of those subscribers are probably bots.
This is not the win that you think it is...
Right? I'm still trying to figure it all out but I don't get what the benefit would be to having a username on a big instance. Seems like bragging rights would go to people who have their own instance.
But also the op didn't say it was a win... they just stated the fact. So there's that.
